Abbott LC, Maynard AD. Our results indicate that NIH3T3 fibroblasts exposed to MWNT and GF nanomaterials are under metabolic stress, which activates mechanisms such as ROS production, and mechanical regulation to maintain their homeostasis. The conventional approaches to assess the potential cytotoxic effects of nanomaterials (NMs) mainly rely on in vitro biochemical assays. The SSA is a critical parameter in in vitro assays that evaluate the response of cells to nanomaterial exposure, as detected on the basis of catalytic activity, acidity/alkalinity, absorption, fluorescence signaling, adsorption capacity, and metabolic dynamics [3]. I’ve made a video of the experiment here youtu.be/xASsYJo3zrM. https://doi.org/10.1111/ropr.12129. 2016;18:89. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11051-016-3375-4. The results from live/dead assay confirms a slightly higher cytotoxic effect expected from MWCNT probably secondary to a larger SSA, nickel impurities, and facilitated cell uptake. 3. AppliedStatics (eme1016) Uploaded by. NIH3T3 (ATCC CRL-1213; American Type Culture Collection, Manassas, VA, USA) were selected to assess the toxic effects of CBNs since the fibroblast are responsible for extracellular matrix production and these cells are present during the injury/repair processes. Contact mechanics. Risk Anal. The lack of F-actin filaments results in lower Young’s modulus values [20,21,22,23,24]. Disaggregation of actin filaments has resulted in reducing the cell’s Young’s modulus, and it has been used as a correlation between the F-actin network and the cell’s mechanical stability [55]. 2014;118:1246–55. Perfect for A-level physics students on any specification. Kay AR. We used the standard force–volume AFM mode to generate topographic, and elasticity map sought to determine the cell’s stiffness (Young’s modulus) of untreated and CBN-treated (MWCNT and GF) fibroblasts after 2 and 24 h of exposure, to 50 µg/mL concentration, Fig. 5. Rather than using a note card to split the single beam into two coherent beams, a carbon-coated glass slide with two closely spaced etched slits is used.

PLoS Comput Biol. The structural characteristics—size and shape—of both CBNs (MWCNTs and GFs) were analyzed using a JEOL JEM 1400 plus transmission electron microscope (Jeol, Tokyo, Japan; located at Fundación Santa Fe). The authors declare that they have no competing interests. The Young’s modulus of the cells exposed to MWCNT after 2 h had a slight increase, this effect has been reported by different authors after the administration of SWCNT, mentioning that it can be related to the reinforcement by nanomaterials to the cytoskeleton fibers (actin stress fibers) [63, 64]. The NMs properties can also interfere with the reagents of the biochemical and optical assays leading to skewed interpretations and ambiguous results related to the NMs toxicity. Assessment of endothelial dysfunction. The excess of ROS results in additional glutathione residues to the actin monomers during the polymerization process of F-actin [19]. Here, we proposed a structured approach for cytotoxicity assessment complemented with cells’ mechanical responses represented as the variations of elastic Young’s modulus in conjunction with conventional biochemical tests.

Protein concentration in the supernatant after exposure to CBNs for 24 h at a concentration of 10 µg/mL and 50 µg/mL. We also found that F-actin cytoskeleton integrity was disrupted not only by the administration of CBNs in the cytoplasm but also by the overproduction of ROS in the cells and the protein depletion in culture media. By comparing the effects of uniaxial tensile load on the change of the deflection curve with gravity, the relation between the actual and directly measured tensile Young's modulus is obtained.

However, the introduced analysis of the length modifications in the actin networks once exposed to CBNs and their estimation of cell’s Young modulus indicates a deleterious effect on the mechanical stability of living cells that was opposite to the results of the viability assays. Detecting viability transitions of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells by Raman micro-spectroscopy.

Furthermore, MWCNT instead of modifying the protein adsorption, it had been shown to interact mechanically with actin cytoskeleton fibers possibly reinforcing its cellular structure resulting in a higher Young’s modulus [23]. Monitoring the mechanical properties responses at various times allowed understanding the effects of NMs to the filamentous actin cytoskeleton. Shvedova AA, Pietroiusti A, Fadeel B, Kagan VE. The percentage of cells expressing ROS production was two times higher on cells exposed to GF than in those exposed to MWCNT, Fig. 3. Eur J Pharm Biopharm. The force/volume measurements were done at least 22 points per cell. However, the quantitative connections related to the ROS production and the cell mechanical properties with the CBNs’ dimensionality, such as the cylindrical MWCNT with one dimension out the nanoscale against planar GF with two dimensions, remains poorly understood.

In summary, our results suggest that toxicity assessments need to consider additional techniques apart from the traditional, here demonstrated with the integration of the single the cells’ mechanical properties. PubMed Central  Our study shows the dependence of the Young’s modulus on exposure time. Therefore, it is a shape dependence of the ability of CBNs to adsorb media proteins. The length of the actin fibers in cells exposed to GF was 50% shorter than the fibers of the cells exposed to MWCNT. The cells exposed to MWCNT shows almost two times the number of mitochondria and some vesicles with MWCNT inside, Fig. 1b. Next, cells were trypsinized, harvested, centrifuged, and the supernatant was removed. Based on the experimental results of Harris (1998), the ratio of dynamic elastic modulus to the laboratory measured static chord modulus of dam concrete ranged from 0.7 to 1.20, and the average value was 1.0. These results regarding the relationship of the Young’s modulus of cells to the nanomaterials’ dimensionality are a novel approach to understand the cytotoxic effects.

Among the NMs properties, SSA has been widely accepted as the dominant toxicity predictor, since a greater SSA is associated with higher reactivity with cellular structures, in many cases due to a major ROS production [41].

Our experimental protein absorption results demonstrated higher adsorption rates for GFs than for MWCNTs, which led to a significant decrease of the availability of proteins for cell homoeostasis, increasing the ROS production after 24 h of exposure to 32% for cells exposed to GF and 17% for cells exposed to MWCNTs. The Young Modulus is named after Thomas Young (1773 to 1829) who was a British polymath, contributing to our understanding of optics, physiology, and Egyptology, among other fields. Standardizations labs have noticed these discrepancies between the characterization from the manufacturer and final user as significant constraints on nanomaterials’ toxicological studies [38].
